Windlass Ewart Oakeshott’s King Henry V

King Henry V, an English king, achieved a decisive victory in the critical Battle of Agincourt (1415), propelling his kingdom to unprecedented power heights. A blade believed to have been used by the English king himself was found and restored by Ewart Oakeshott, known as the unofficial father of European sword research. This sword is a replica of that blade.

It is a 1065 high carbon steel Arming Sword fitted with a sharply pointed diamond-cross blade designed for effective slashing and thrusting attacks. The crossguard dons raised quillons made of steel, while the large yet light pommel is gilded in gold, mimicking the original. The handle, wrapped with smooth leather, is wooden, and the sword includes a matching leather sheath. This replica of Henry V's sword provides a chance to handle one of history's most infamous blades, applicable for decorative or functional uses.
